Eighteen thousand quarters means some dougn. Oh, yes, they bare a few reserve seats at 25 and 60. It was estimated that there were fifty thousand people In town. Hughcv Melnott and Asthur Davis had a great vis'lt during the engagement. iVorman, tie /roe man, was a welcome call- er at Hie Western Bureau of The New York Clipper, In Chicago, Tuesday. 10. and In bis breezy way entertained us with a resume of lis experiences on thj vaudeville stage In the East, where he lias been for the past five years. Norman Is oue of those big, whole- some rort of chaps, who maies himself wel- come wherever be goes, and his stage offer- ing is most unique. As Normen says: "I am carrying one of the most beautiful trop- ical settings with electrical effects In the country, and I open at San Soucl Park, In Chicago. Monday, 25, with six Orpheum parks to follow. It Is remarkable how firm a bold The New j'ofk Climes has upon be affections of show people In general. JJatur- elly I expected everybody to read The Clip- pes down East, but I And that The Old He- liable Is Just as strong In tho West Why should it not be, for It has never descended to ulterior methods, and always has a warm welcome for meritorious artists. I wouldn't want to say that I am the greatest artist In my larticualr sphere of entjrtalninent en- deavors, but for the rast twenty-six years I have j.iayed big time with whnt I believe to be the most unique variety presentation ever evolved." Norman is a modest gentle- man, and doesn't look Vie a man who would wilfully tell a falsehood, and when lie In- forms us that he Intends to make the natives in the wild and wooily West sit up and take notice with his new singe settings and his novel contortion act, we con reddlly believe THI NCW IYOHII MAROH ^1—I—i IN II TOWN WHEHE JANE AND I Words by CHAS- E.

The week closed without actual bloodshed, but rumbles of the impending conflict Indi- cate frightful carnage at an early date. Gen- eral Chill Con Kennedy wires that the forces under bis command are In excellent lighting trim and ready for service at a moment's notice. Ills brigade of seasoned veterans can be relieved upon to give an excellent account of themselves. I.leutenaat-General Tomales W. Allen likewise reports his troops ready and eager for the fray. Generals liernardo Parker and Frejoles Brundage have be*:u pre- paring for conflict for months, and have looked well to the matters of transportation and commissary supplies. Ample provision has been made for Uie defense of tho citadel at Leavenworth, and the commanding general has no ifears of being deposed by the usurpers. Nevertheless he has taken the wise precaution of placing mines at such places In the Missouri River as will render an attack from that source fruitless. Approaches from the other sides will be promptly frustrated by an ingenious arrange- ment of steam pipes, whereby any invading force can be glvtn a hot reception. The se- cret service ptans are being taken care of by the Cook House Comedy Co.,'and it is reported that several desertions "have al- ready taken plate In the enemy's ranks as a result of their efforts. This brunch of the service is in charge of Senoritas Uassctta end Rhodesia,' rod, much is expected from their well-matured plans of campaign: General Parker Informs your correspond- ent that he2 has perfected an aggres- sive campaign, and bas the utmost confidence in an ultimate victory"for the allied forces. He places little credence In the'report that the enemy contemplates poisoning the drink- ing water of 'his troops or that an attonfpt has been made to smuggle a mated pair of live carnival pheasants into bis camps. Never- theless he proposes to take such steps as may be necessary.to forestall any such villainy should It be attempted. The coming week will doubtless witness Important developments, arid your -cook bouse correspondent will keep his ear to the ground and seep you advised as events shape themselves. It is understood that Senor Red Qpion has been engaged as chief correspondent In the field of actual hostilities. If he can withstand the shock of battle and the hardships of actual campaign- ing, unaccompanied by the luxuries to which his pampered appetite has become accustoiied, ion will, no doubt, receive many an lnterest- ig tale of. carnage from bis facile pen. Juan Huebta Villa, Cook Hoose Corres- pondent Mr dear Joe: I notice In the notes from' the Kline Shows regarding a "spy" being cap- tured by the name of Red Onion, and that be would be executed by sunrise. I think that Is on error as I was on the Wortham & Allen outfit with him afl of last Summer, •rod he was never up before about noon, so that would be Impossible. Very truly, F. 8. Reed, formerly manager Buckskin Ben's Fa- mous Shews. . * H. H. TAMMEN IN CHICAGO. H. H. Tammen, associate proprietor of the Sells-Floto-Buffalo Bill Show, and multl-mll- llonalre newspaper man, was a welcome caller at the western Bureau of The New Tons Clipper, In Chicago, Saturday. 23. Ho stated that, so far, the daily receipts of the Sells-Floto Circus had increased to the ex- teat of $1,200 on the average over tbat of last year, which is a striking evidence ot Buffalo Bill's ' drawing powers. According to Mr. Tammen, the big show performance bas been materially strengthened for tho Sresent tour, which he has every reason to elleve. will be the most successful In the history of his organization. While In Chi- cago Mr. Tammen was In conference with George K. Spoor, president of the Ecsanry Firm Mfg. Co., that made the Buffalo Bill Indian War moving pictures, which have created a Bensatlon wherever exhibited. The Sells-Floto-Buffnlo Bill- Show will play a number of the metropolitan cities during the season of 1014, ' * CIRCUS MERGER A MYTH. Ralph W. Pcokhim. Chicago representative of tie Rlngllag Bros, emphatically denies the rumor of a circus merger. Including tho Hagenbeck-Wallace. Rlngllng Bros., Barnum A Bailey and Forepaugh-Sclls properties. "There Is not the slightest truth in the story." says Mr. Peckbam. "Rlngllng Broth- ers' Circus will not combine with any amuse- ment enterprise." Articles of incorporation, which are said to have been filed at Richmond, Va., by the law firm of Mayer, Mayer, Austrian ft Piatt, of Chicago, for the Hagenbeclc-Wallace .Show, give rise to the story- There have been numerous rumors of cir- cus combines lately. Whether It Is press work on the part of the Hagenbeck-Wallace Show Is not known. Stories have been b'*>- blng up at various times, some of which brought the name of Rells-Floto In connec- tion with tbat of tho Rlngllag Brothers. DR. GROUCH WITH THE 101 RANCH WILD WEST. Philadelphia, Pa., May 10. Ml Dear Joe: Wo came, they saw, we conouercd. Our (reck la Philadelphia was a repetition of our New York success. Our business, while not' phenomenal, was big.

All bands arc looking forward to our day and date, Monday, witti the Rlngllng Show, in Boston. To-night Is our first pack ap, and we're oft on our tour of 1014. DR. GROUCH ROSES AROUND AGAIN. If Dr. Cook could handle that talk stuff Hke Henley does. Peary would still be doing a marathon for the Jiorth Pole. Berry Casper Is strong opposition to Bafcu Lmnta. Jack Leonard says Davis Is a bnlly traitor. Billy Nash was watching Bert Marls doing tu.-iness. Says BHIy: "Mlstau Bert, why don't you stick to this business?" Someone asked- Butch Cobti: "What would be the worat thing that could happen to you ?" Scratch Hogan says: "Cut off both his arms, as he couldn't talk then."

Sunday morning, 24. Habit W. Wright, general agent for the A. B. Miller Shows, visited "The World at Home," in Racine. Wis., one night last week. Tub Informal opening of "The World At Home," In Racine, Wis., was a most suc- cessful one, and those who attended it wens forcibly impressed with' the fact that this organization, upon its formal opening in Cedar Ra-plds. la., June 1. will present one of the strongest lineup of attractions In. tho tented amusement world. The general en- semble Is a most meritorious one, and the Plaza of Pleasure (the Midway) will be a dream of beauty. General Manager E. C. Talbott has affairs well In hand, and is being ably assisted by a competent executive staff. Fred M. Barnes and Joe Laumann made a flying trip from Chicago to Riclne and Bpent considerable time oa "The word at Home" Jot A. A. Powers mndc a splendid showing with the program and the Q"**?,," contest. Bdg business Is anticipated in Mil- waukee, Wis., this week. Tho wagons fur- nished by the Hannibal Wagon Co. deserve special mention, and a carload of horses pur- chased from W. P. Hall, of Lancaster. Mo., are as fine as money can buy. Baba Del- earlan Mike Zlnney, Omar Saml, California Frank,* Charles Wlllard and Lew Backenstoe are enthusiastic over the prbspects for the season with "The World At Home," which Is to be formally Inaugurated at Cedar Rap- Ids, and will probably be attended by 8tate fair managers and secretaries from all parts of the country and scores of showmen In the tented field ' "The World At Home" train Is a marvel of elegance, and is completely equipped with every modern convenience. A 1014 Parker carry-us-all Is one of the fea- tures with "The World At Home." POLLITT PBOMOTES PUBLICITY. John Alexander Pollltt, director of pub- licity for the Clarence A Wortham Shows, all around showman, and one of the most aggressive chaps In the tent show field. writes us from Sioux City, la., under date of May 21, as follows: M v Dear Joe : I am sending yon a few notes about "The World's Greatest," and I assure you that if I could have found timo I would certainly-have written yon before, but these two shows that I have with this aggregation are enougb to drive any sane man "nutty." Battling with the Diving Venuses was soft compared to the experiences which I have underwent since the opening in Danville, III. But, happily, conditions are assuming a coraml atmosphere and, under the direction of "The Little Giant,"-affaire are running along very smoothly. We purchased a new top for the hippo- drome last week, and added a couple of new performance* . ■ The Maze has aided the lost girl effect and Is proving a big winner. Manager Wortham rerently purchased a new Eulek Runabout, which alas materially in getting the show on and off the lot. In Dcs Moines, la., last week, we showed on, what wbb once, tho city baseball park, to a fair week's business. Ibis week we arc on Hcall's triangle. In Kloux City, and eevernl of us remember the four years ago when we showed here on tho nice lot with (he wnt-T four feet deep, and our ballyhoo stands compu tc-ly Inundated (get that), and the' elephants were forced to swim through- feather dusters, confetti, ham- burgers, hot sausages and what not. which floated i.jou {he surface of tho' raging flood A picture I will never forget. Wo hopo that there will not be a retention of that experience here, although yon clouds have a stormy-llkc aspect. General Agent Steve A. Woods returned to the show this week and reports an ex- ceptionally good rout.} and splendid pros- pects. "The Crystal Tango" far exceeds our ex- pectations as a money-getter, nnd with Cor- bel! and tho irresistible Charles Kllpatrlvk, on the front.,should prove a tremendous win- ner on the season. The parade feature of the Clarence A. Wortham Shows is a decided Innovation, and with our magnificent equipment nnd draft stock makes a very creditable showing. The carry-us-all has purchased some new music, our calliope la working at last, Marsh- all has a new oven for tho cook-house, Pol- lltt's girls arc singing new nones. McCnf- fery has a new lighting system, lllll Hno-pp lias succeeded la getting the nuto carburntor to work. Wortham has a new pair nf shoes, wo arc all making money, and arc as baldly as a bunch of June buns; so Isch ga blbble. Buttb, Mont.. May 1ft.
